CODE 106823 ACADEMIC YEAR 2022/2023 CREDITS 5 cfu anno INGEGNERIA ELETTRONICA 8732 (LM-29) - GENOVA 5 cfu anno 2 INGEGNERIA ELETTRONICA 8732 (LM-29) - GENOVA SCIENTIFIC DISCIPLINARY SECTOR ING-INF/02 TEACHING LOCATION GENOVA SEMESTER 2° Semester TEACHING MATERIALS AULAWEB OVERVIEW Electromagnetic sensing and imaging techniques are essential in various fields, ranging from radar systems to medical diagnostics. Understanding such techniques, starting from the theoretical bases and exploring the most advanced applications, is fundamental to design and use the related electronic systems. AIMS AND CONTENT LEARNING OUTCOMES The course provides skills on electromagnetic sensing and diagnostics techniques, with reference both to the implementation aspects (theoretical, hardware, numerical / software), and to their use in different applicative fields. AIMS AND LEARNING OUTCOMES The course provides skills on electromagnetic sensing and diagnostic systems and techniques, with particular reference to: radar systems for surveillance and monitoring; ground penetrating radar; X-ray and magnetic resonance imaging; microwave imaging and diagnostics; electrical impedance tomography. Both operating principles and implementation aspects of these techniques are covered by the course, as well as their use in different application areas (also with practical exercises). The goal is to enable students to know how to design and use electromagnetic sensors and diagnostic systems. PREREQUISITES Basic concepts of electromagnetic fields. TEACHING METHODS Lectures and laboratory experiences. SYLLABUS/CONTENT Review of EM propagation and scattering. Radar systems for surveillance and monitoring: operating principles and applications. Ground penetrating radar: Basic principles, signal processing techniques, and applications. X-ray imaging: Basic principles, computed tomography, and applications.
